Hello everyone!

Being a main Monk since Mists of Pandaria, raiding on Mythic difficulty each expansion and achieving multiple Cutting Edge titles, I decided to create a macro to help disabled players, newcomers to the class, or any Monk who wants to improve their performance in general with a build that delivers competitive results for high-end content

The idea of this build is to reduce button bloat and let you focus more on important gameplay elements like interrupts, crowd control, positioning, and mechanics, instead of constantly thinking about your next DPS keypress.

Right now, both Hero Talent options are fairly close in overall value, but Celestial is slightly ahead in damage, so feel free to play whichever one you prefer.

With how our Apex talent works this season, we want to prioritize Haste and Crit

This sequence uses the following priority: Strike of the Windlord, Fists of Fury on cooldown, Zenith every 30 sec, Rising Sun Kick on Cd, Tiger Palm, Blackout Kick and Touch of Death

And how you damage should look like

To give you a comparison: this is the DPS of top Monks in keys at the moment, in AoE situations. So yeah, Monk DPS isn’t impressive right now, but keep in mind we’re still in the pre-patch, without access to all our talents and Apex talents, and things aren’t balanced yet

9

Improved the single-target sequence and added Mythic+ one for both heroic spec. Delete the old one and copy paste the sequence again

Thanks for making this!

I don’t really have any benchmark for my item level in terms of what DPS I should do (Raidbots is down) but I am getting about ~8k single target using the Shado-Pan build for ~3 minutes.

11

what is your item lvl and stats ?

I just came back for prepatch so my gear is very dated and not good. So take it with a grain of salt.

13

I see ye, haste and overall ilvl is super low, your damage should improve by a lot when ever you got some gear

14

Talent tree has been fixed :ok_hand:

conduit?

tomorrow looks like shado pan is giga buffed?

16

Sounds good! I’m going to give this a proper test over today and tomorrow. I’ll be leveling the character from 1 to 80 just to have something to do while waiting for the expansion to drop. Curious to see how the whole setup feels during the process, so I’ll keep an eye on how everything plays out. Looking forward to seeing how all the sequences you suggested turn out!

One thing I’d like to ask, more out of curiosity than a request, is whether you’ve actually used any of these sequences in rated PvP, like RBGs or arenas. If so, which one ended up feeling the most impactful for you?

I’m asking because I’d like to mess around with some PvP while leveling to 80, and it would be great to know which sequence performs best in a real PvP setting.

17

2/17 buffs make fof damage pecent insane– 40% of my damage on logs are fof now lol

Hey! Not sure if anyone else has reported this yet, but I just tried using the Single Target Celestial sequence and I’m running into an issue. It keeps spamming “spell not learned” over and over. I’m not very familiar with how sequences work, so I’m not sure what’s causing it.

From what I can tell, the sequence is firing 1 single ability from what I can see, but something seems to be missing or misconfigured in the sequence. Whatever it is, it’s causing the whole thing to fail.

Just wanted to give a heads-up in case it helps with troubleshooting!

Ah ok, so it’s not wanting to trigger Invoke Xuen, when it’s manually cast it will then go through the sequence, but then the whole thing just hangs at one point, like it’s not wanting to start from the beginning again.

19

Are you lvl 80 yet ?

20

Yeah, I hit level 80 about an hour before I sent you that message. I mainly wanted to import the other sequences into GSE on my client and test them to make sure everything worked. That is when I ran into this issue.

The strange thing is that if I manually press the White Tiger skill, the sequence will start running correctly. But after a certain point it just stops. I am not sure if it is something wrong with my GSE setup or something in the sequence itself. If it works fine on your end, then it is likely an issue on my side, but it is still really odd.

All the other sequences work perfectly, like the Shado Pan abilities and the Mystic plus Celestial setup. It is only the Celestial Single Target sequence that is giving me trouble. I am not sure what is causing it at the moment.

For now I am just chilling and enjoying playing my monk. It is just weird that the single target Celestial sequence is behaving like this. Just wanted to update you on what I am experiencing.
